Lakera is an AI-native security platform that protects GenAI applications, agents, and workforces from prompt injection, data leakage, PII exposure, content violations, and malicious links. Lakera Guard exposes a single-endpoint runtime screening API (/v2/guard) that accepts OpenAI-style chat messages and returns a flagged decision in sub-50ms; a companion /v2/guard/results endpoint returns L1–L5 detector confidence levels for offline analysis. The Lakera Platform API lets Enterprise customers manage policies (detector sensitivity and action) and projects (per-application bindings) programmatically. Founded in Zurich and acquired by Check Point Software in 2025, Lakera also operates Gandalf, the 1M+ player prompt injection challenge that feeds its detector training pipeline, and publishes the open-source PINT benchmark for prompt injection detection evaluation.
